Synopsis

This film blends science fiction and martial arts in the story of a warrior pilot who returns to his home planet to discover it under the rule of the tyrannical Captain Kogar. Upon learning that his family has been murdered, he teams up with his friends to confront Kogar and restore the planet to its rightful leadership. The film was compiled from episodes of the Japanese television series *Message from Space: Galactic Warriors*, which itself was a spinoff of the film *Message from Space*.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 10

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
